Security audit

Stock Alert

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This stock-alert skill is purpose-aligned and disclosed: it queries stock prices online and stores user-created alert settings locally.

Install only if you are comfortable with stock symbols you query or monitor being sent to Sina Finance, and with your alert list and thresholds remaining in local dotfiles until you remove them. Treat the alerts as informational, not trading advice.

MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to write persistent data to local files and send stock codes to an external network endpoint, yet declares no corresponding permissions. This creates a capability/permission mismatch that can bypass user or platform expectations, leading to silent local data retention and external data disclosure during normal use.
